Africa is home to one of the youngest populations in the world, with a median age of 19.
The World Bank estimates that by 2030, Africa will have 477 million youths aged 18 to 35.
Even if only 20% are skilled, that's nearly 100 million young professionals entering the global workforce.
By 2050, the continent is expected to have over 1 billion youths, with a significant number entering the global workforce.
